Breaking Silos, Building Bridges: A Modernized Approach to Collaboration for Higher Education

Higher education leaders are under intense pressure to follow strategic priorities, improve student success, and drive operational efficiency—yet many are hindered by outdated systems that can't keep up with these critical demands. 

Join us on May 20^th for an inside look at how UMass Amherst is transforming campus operations with Asana’s modern work management platform. In this session, university leaders will share how they launched their first-ever Project Management Office (PMO) to break down silos within IT, enhance cross-functional collaboration, and improve service delivery across the campus community.

Attendees will learn: 

• How to lay the foundation for a centralized PMO that aligns strategy with execution.
• Why visibility and accountability are key to driving progress across campus initiatives.
• How to overcome siloed operations and foster collaboration across departments.
• Key considerations for implementing modern work tools in a higher ed environment.
• What higher ed leaders should consider when preparing for AI adoption.
